简介
Objective:
We compared surgical resection (SR) and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) as first-line treatment in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) based on the risk of microvascular invasion (MVI).
Background:
The best curative treatment modality between SR and RFA in patients with HCC with MVI remains unclear.
Methods:
Data from 2 academic cancer center-based cohorts of patients with a single, small (≤ 3 cm) HCC who underwent SR were used to derive (n= 276) and validate (n= 101) prediction models for MVI using clinical and imaging variables. The MVI prediction model was developed using multivariable logistic regression analysis and externally validated. Early recurrence (< 2 years) based on risk stratification between SR (n= 276) and RFA (n= 240) was evaluated via propensity score matching.
Results:
In the multivariable analysis, alpha-fetoprotein (≥ 15 ng/mL), protein induced by vitamin K …
